Korean packs letters into blocks. Read a block like a page: top-left, then right, then bottom.

Only here

The site learns with you.

Every letter you learn, in the chart, the block builder or a listening quiz, joins your 40. From then on, Korean on every page shows those letters as plain hangul and keeps a romanization hint only where you still need one. The crutch disappears as you learn.

안an녕nyeong하ha세se요yo

안녕하세요 (annyeonghaseyo), "Hello". You read 0 of 5 syllables on your own.

Tools, not articles

Every page lets you do something.

Hear all 40 letters. Hide the romanization to test yourself.

190 blocks with sound

Every consonant with every basic vowel, out loud.

가, 카 or 까?

The three-way contrast English lacks. Hear it, then test your ears.

Put letters together and watch a syllable take shape.
